Dyson V7 Animal Cordless Handheld Vacuum Cleaner, Purple, Medium

Product Information

So, to extend your battery life, save the high power modes for only when you genuinely need them. Let It Cool Down Before Recharging In most cases, that’s alright. However, using high power modes very often will also cause your battery to wear out faster than usual. If, for example, your battery has fallen onto the ground too many times, the impact could damage the internal parts of the battery, causing it not to function correctly (i.e. charge and discharge). Powering the unit is controlled by squeezing the trigger located on the handle of the unit. There is no power switch, so once the trigger is released, the motor shuts off. Power Modes my cordfree/handheld dyson is my very favorite household help. we have hard floors throughout our home and the dyson has been revolutionary in my day to day routine. pre-dyson, i swept, dust-panned and mopped multiple times a day. those of you dyson fans out there can likely imagine how much BETTER everything is with one of these. ++ i can’t say often enough how AWESOME the cordlessness is. ++ the battery life is sufficient on the regular setting for a brisk vacuum tour of our main floor + stairs. ++ it is lightweight enough even for my four year old to wield on floors and stairs and for myself vacuum dusting the wooodwork above my head. ++ quality seems great, plastic is pretty durable. i’ve only had mine for two months and it’s held up under pretty heavy usage.

With 5 cleaning tools for the stairs, upholstery and car. Includes an extra stubborn dirt brush for cleaning coarse or hard-wearing carpets, door mats and high-traffic areas of your home and car. Battery: The battery does not require your attention as much (unless it dies). Aside from replacing the battery as a whole, there is not much maintenance that goes into the battery. Here are a few handy ways to extend the battery life on your Dyson vacuum: Use High Power Modes Less Often Wash the HEPA filter (if included): Not all of the Dyson V7 models include a HEPA filter. That said, if your unit does, it should be washed once per month with cold water and allowed to air dry for 24 hours. Just like with the central filter, only replace if it’s damaged or you lose it. The HEPA filter is a lifetime filter. To extend that battery’s life, give it some time to cool down after every use and don’t recharge it right away. By giving it a chance to cool down, you’ll protect the battery from any excessive heat that will wear out or damage the battery even faster. Storage Room TemperatureIn other words, its battery capacity drops over time after repeatedly charging and discharging over several years. If you’ve had your Dyson vacuum for many years and you start to notice that it can’t hold a charge like it once did, then that’s a clear sign that you should replace it with a new battery. The Battery Is Damaged I still love this vacuum!!! It is still in perfect condition. So easy to use, especially under the beds and corners.

Stubborn dirt brush for cleaning coarse or hard-wearing carpets, door mats and high-traffic areas of your home and car.Dyson vacuums offer high power modes as one of their features. While that might help vacuum a very challenging mess, it also involves discharging your battery at a much higher rate than usual. Powerful suction, a long battery run time, several cleaning tools / accessories, and a quality build all combine to create a cordless vacuum well worth considering. Wash the central filter: The central filter on the V7 is a lifetime filter. Users should wash once per month with cold water and allow to air dry for 24 hours. Batteries need to be stored at room temperature to maximize their lifespans, and that’s certainly true for your Dyson battery as well. Keep the battery away from extremely high or low temperatures. High temperatures will cause damage to the battery, while low temperatures below 37°F will prevent the battery from charging or discharging at all. Discharge The Battery Entirely

Lastly, you can extend a Dyson battery’s lifespan by discharging it thoroughly once a month. That means running the vacuum until it stops completely, thereby draining all power inside the battery.

Affordable, powerful and easy to handle

Using the Dyson V7is simple. That said, there is a short setup period required before you can use the unit. The Setup Damaged batteries can’t be repaired, so this would also require you to buy a replacement battery while disposing of the damaged one in a safe and environmentally responsible way. The Charger Is Damaged Excellent!!! It comes with accessories and I haven't used them all yet but the brush attachment for couches/chairs is perfect. I'd say it gets about 98% of the fur off the couch if not 100%. It has been a game changer for us in dealing with the fur.

The battery indicator is a single light on one side of the V7’s handle (as opposed to the three-bar light found on the V8). Also on the main unit is the slider to switch suction modes – while it’s located right in front of the handheld unit, you will need your other hand to swap modes if you’re doing so in the middle of a clean. That’s the only thing you’re going to need both hands for, though, as the V7 is remarkably easy to use single-handed. Performance Intentional cosmetic decoration or modification that may impact a product’s resale, refurbishment, restoration or usability will void the terms of your product’s warranty and the Dyson return policy. I bought this months ago and waited to write a review because I wanted to get good use of it first.Your Dyson vacuum will run a little hot after every use, especially if you’re using it for extended periods. That heat doesn’t just come from the motor, but it also comes from the battery, which runs hot when discharging the energy stored within. Two power modes are available with the V7; low and max mode. The low mode offers up to 30 minutes of run time, but if the max mode is turned on the battery run time drops to around 7 minutes. Depending on what you're cleaning and for how long you can choose between Low/Eco Mode and High/Boost Mode.
